Consumer Description

WITH JUST OVER 5K MILES, OUR 2016 FOCUS HAS DEVELOPED A WIPER PROBLEM. THE DRIVER'S SIDE, TO BE EXACT. THE WIPER ARM WILL GO PAST IT'S NORMAL STOPPING POINT, & THEN LOCK UP. BUT SOMETIMES, IT WILL STOP MID WAY, WHILE THE RIGHT SIDE WIPER CONTINUES TO WORK. HAVE HAD IT TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES ALREADY. THEY'VE MADE ADJUSTMENT, & REPAIRS, BUT IT CONTINUES TO MESS UP. EACH WIPER HAS AN INDEPENDENT MOTOR. BEGINNING TO THINK WE'VE BOUGHT A LEMON. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE CAR IS IN MOTION OR SITTING STILL.
